What Brides Are Saying About Us!!!

Dear Ashley,
I wanted to write to follow up on 2 things. Firstly, Cara was amazing!!! She was able to match the complexions of all of my bridesmaids and gave each of them a signature look which they all loved. She was really professional, worked efficiently to complete the job on schedule, and made all of us look absolutely spectacular. I will definitely recommend the service and was wondering where I could post a review online to reflect the most excellent job Cara did.

Hi,
Just wanted to send a message to Erica about how pleased I was with my hair for the wedding on that rainy day in Sept! She set my hair in open rolls, and it stayed up 3 hours till I carefully pulled it out with my fingers. The style stayed in all the way till midnight, through a lot of dancing, too! I felt so great all day, and she really made a difference in how my day went! Sincere Thanks!
Frances Frey


OHhhhhh my gosh, it WAS amazing!!!!!!!!!! It was the most perfect day ever!!!! Everything was sooo smooth and perfect. I just laid back and had everything fell into place! it was perfection!!!!!!!!
By the way, everyone was sooo happy with their hair and make-up!!! Even my very selective mother-in-law ended up getting both make-up and hair!!! it was great! And it took me THREE shampoos to get my hair our of the hair style but that was perfect because that means it stayed perfect all day long!!!!!!!!
Thank you again soo much! I will most definitely be recommending you to anyone I know who gets married in this area!!!!
Take care,

More Weddings!!!

I love when photographers post about the weddings they just shot within hours of getting home from a long day! I am such a blog stalker! So I check out Andrew Riley's site and of course blog to see what was new!!! To my surprise I was thrilled to see Heather's photos from this past Saturday! I was really looking forward to her wedding. These girls were great and make me love what I do!! As I arrived to the hotel room at the new Westin in Annapolis, the girls had been to Starbucks already and had a latte for me! Bonus points for the bridesmaids!!! Also, one of the bridesmaids Jessica was there! We did her wedding last June! It is always fun to catch up with our past brides! Anyways~ I had been looking forward to Heather's wedding since she walked out the door from our trial run. I knew her hair would be amazing and she had gorgeous silk flowers and a birdcage veil! Her style is magazine worthy!!! Heather~ Thanks so much for including me on your wedding day! Andrew- if you are reading this- I stole your fabulous photos from your blog!!!
On Labor Day Monday I was with Crystal and her really fun crew!! Her wedding was really neat! I was able to share in on some fun moments with the girls as they got ready!!

I had never heard of cake toppers like Crystals!!! She and her hubby had their Wii people made into wooden cake toppers!! How cool is that?? I was so excited to see the cake and their Wii people together!!
I wasn't there for this part of the wedding but had to grab this photo. These guys look like too much fun!!!

Congrats Crystal!!

We make a great team!!! Congrats Tracy! The word of the day, "Romantic"!!!

There are so many words to describe Annie as a bride. But when I saw these photos my jaw dropped. Erica and Danielle did an incredible job with preparing these ladies to walk down the aisle!!! Congrats Annie!!!
